Overview
About Me
I’m a software engineer living in Barcelona, trying to balance work, curiosity, and enjoying the small everyday moments. I work mostly from home, which means I’ve had time to really get to know the city beyond the obvious places. I genuinely enjoy sharing those little discoveries — whether it’s a favorite café, a nice walk, or just a place with a good vibe.
I live with my wife and our two cats, and our home is usually calm, friendly, and a bit cozy-chaotic in a good way. I like meeting people from different backgrounds and hearing their stories — sometimes over a long conversation, sometimes just in a relaxed, easygoing way. If we have time, I’d be happy to explore the city together or at least help you experience it a bit more like a local (and yes, tequila tasting is definitely an option).
When I travel, I try to be the kind of guest I’d love to host. I’m respectful of space and routines, easy to communicate with, and I appreciate the simple things — a shared meal, a walk, or a good conversation late in the evening. I don’t see Couchsurfing as a way to save money, but as a way to connect with people and experience places more honestly. I’m always happy to contribute, whether it’s cooking something, bringing a small gift, or just sharing stories and good energy.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I want to meet new people and make new friends around the world. Learn something new from them, learn about their culture. I want to help and support other couchsurfers visiting my city.
